"Andy and his crew turned our backyard nightmare into a garden paradise. I highly recommend them for your landscaping needs.
Our new home came with a built-in water feature in the yard. The previous owners had let it fall into disrepair, but we could tell that it was beautiful at one point. We wanted a professional to inspect it and, if needed, to make necessary repairs.
We found Andy on Angie's List and contacted him because of his unique specialization in water features. We were very happy we did so: Andy is an expert at what he does and is passionate about the design and installation of water features. This came across clearly from our first conversations and carried through into the quality of the final product.
When Andy came out to inspect our fountain we were very disappointed to learn the water feature was in such disrepair that it was flooding our yard (a known issue whose cause we were having trouble pin-pointing). It also had a standing pool of water at its base that was beginning to breed mosquitoes and other forms of wildlife. Further, the previous owners had chosen a very invasive form of decorative grass that had pierced the water barrier and taken over a large portion of the surrounding yard..
Andy worked with us to come up with a solution that fit our budget while still allowing us to keep a water feature in our yard. He was able to do this by re-using many of the existing materials to save cost (e.g. the water pump, water lines, and a large portion of the rocks). I have not encountered many contractors that were willing to do this over the years, and I have to say I truly respect Andy for being so flexible with us.
To make matters better, he stuck with the budget and delivered us a BEAUTIFUL waterfall all within our negotiated time frame. Over two days, Ponds to Patios removed our old water feature, tilled the earth to remove the root system of the invasive grass, installed a new water barrier, and built us a new fountain.
Andy guaranteed his craftsmanship for a year. Given the quality of the final product, though, I doubt we'll need to call him for service.
I know Ponds-to-patios is not the biggest outfit around the area, but they are definitely dedicated to what they do. They are a passionate and honest business that will work hard to earn your trust and business.

"Excellent. There was good communication with Ian. Job was completed in the timeframe that he said and my driveway looks great. Told me the process of repairing my driveway and gave me helpful hints while the cement dried. Ian was easy to work with and I felt confident that this job was in the right hands."

Land Clearing Services questions, answered by experts

Soil testers and licensed excavators are often the professionals you hire if you need a perc test. In some cases, structural engineers will also be able to conduct the test for you. In many municipalities, you’ll need your professional on-site to dig and fill the holes with water, as well as a representative from your local building department or health department. That representative is the individual who will determine whether your test passes or fails.

You will find a collection of licensed land surveyors in your area. Your real estate agent or construction manager may also be able to recommend a trusted professional. When speaking with prospective pros in your area, ask the land surveyor if they are licensed in the state, have liability insurance, and can quote you a fee before starting.

Permit requirements to clear land vary by municipality, so whether or not you need permits depends on where you live and what you’re removing from the land. Some building departments will require permits for any underground work or excavation, meaning grinding down tree stumps on your property would require permits. Others mandate individual permits for each tree you remove. You can contact your local building department or a land-clearing specialist near you to see if permits are necessary for your job.

To prepare for a land survey, you must thoroughly check your land surveyor’s qualifications, reviews, and fees to align with your expectations. When it is time for the survey to be conducted, ensure that you have all your documents organized and available, know and mark your property lines, and inform your neighbors that the survey is happening.

Building a road on a slope requires careful planning and will normally require a drainage system underneath to prevent flooding and damage to the road over time. Your professional may lengthen your road to create switchbacks if the slope directly to your home is too steep, as there are regulations for maximum road slope. The drainage system will help prevent runoff from the higher side of the slope from damaging the asphalt or concrete. Keep in mind that building a road on a slope isn’t a good DIY project, as a lot can go wrong.
